Katie True

Katie True (born January 16, 1941) is an American Republican politician, and former member of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives from 1993 to 2000, then again from 2003 to 2010.

Her work in the community combined with service as a Republican Committee woman eventually led to a political career.

She lost that election to Bob Casey, Jr.[4] After her defeat in 2000, True served as the Executive Director of the Pennsylvania Commission for Women under Governor Tom Ridge.

On April 4, 2011, Governor Tom Corbett named True to lead the Bureau of Professional and Occupational Affairs within the Pennsylvania Department of State.

The bureau provides administrative and legal support for all of the state's licensing boards - which oversees professionals from medical doctors to accountants and funeral directors – while protecting the health, safety and welfare of the public from fraudulent and unethical practitioners.
